Mask off the deck around the plates. Put down a relatively thick (about 1/8 inch) coating of a good polysulfide around the chainplate. Press down lightly on the plate until you get a small amount of "squeeze out". Do not tighten further. Remove masking tape. Wait several days to allow the polysulfide to cure into a rubber like state. Tighten down the plates firmly. Consider seeking professional help for your secrecy obsessions and other personality quirks. |
